Chapter 635: Agent
635
For Xu Taiping, finding things is also a specialty he must have as a killer, a top killer will find the so-called mechanism in a very short time, the secret grid.
After rummaging in Xia Jiang's study for a while, Xu Taiping saw a portrait of a red-crowned crane with its eyes dug into a pit in the wall, and then found a dark grid.
Xu Taiping couldn't find anything in the red-crowned crane's eyes, so he first shifted his attention to the dark grid.
The dark compartment is located directly below Xia Jiang's desk.
The floor of the study was paved with wood, Xu Taiping squatted down and hit the ground hard with his hand, and then Xu Taiping pulled out a dagger from his waist and stabbed it directly into the wooden floor on the ground.
The knife easily pierced into the wooden floor, and then, Xu Taiping used the knife to cut a hole in the wooden floor.
Under the wooden floor, a dark grid about the size of a brick appeared in front of Xu Taiping.
There was a stack of papers in the dark compartment.
Xu Taiping took out the document and looked through it briefly.
Seeing this, Xu Taiping was a little frightened.
This turned out to be a detailed record of Xia Jiang's smuggling of arms!
From three years ago until Xia Jiang's death, Xia Jiang smuggled an unknown number of arms to all over the world!
Not only in Europe, but also in Africa, every week, there are arms dealers who take goods from Xia Jiang, although the amount of goods is not large, but this is enough to prove that Xia Jiang has an arms smuggling network all over the world!
"Could it be that his backer is from the military?" Xu Taiping said to himself with his mobile phone, because only in this way can he explain why Xia Jiang can smuggle so many arms out, and that Mr. Li is very likely to be from the military.
Of course, this is just Xu Taiping's speculation, and it is also possible that Mr. Li is just a middleman.
If Mr. Li can be contacted, does that mean that this smuggling network in Xiajiang can be reopened?
If this smuggling network is opened, it will definitely have a very big role in promoting the development of Taiya Group in the future, and Xu Taiping can also use this to connect with Xia Jiang's backers, in that case, even if Taiya Group is handed over to Zhou Xiaoyu in the future, it will not be easily defeated.
"Why did Xia Jiang's backer never find me? Is it because Xia Jiang died because of me?" Xu Taiping took the document in his hand and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, Xu Taiping put these documents away.
Just as Xu Taiping was about to leave, suddenly, a pen in the pen holder on the table caught Xu Taiping's attention.
It's a fountain pen, and it's a very delicate fountain pen, and it's worth a lot of money at first glance.
Xu Taiping walked to the edge of the pen holder.
It stands to reason that the valuable fountain pen will have a special pen holder, or will be carried around, it is rare to be placed in the pen holder at will like this, and the position of the pen body is a little thick, Xu Taiping has seen this brand of fountain pen, and also remembers the appearance of the same fountain pen, in his impression, this fountain pen should not be so thick.
Xu Taiping picked up the pen and removed the cap of the pen.
Inside is a golden nib, Xu Taiping took the nib to his eyes and looked at it, and found that the lines on the nib were not the lines of ordinary fountain pen nibs, these lines looked more like the lines on the circuit board.
Xu Taiping tried to disassemble the body of the fountain pen, but found that the body of the pen was completely enclosed without any opening.
Suddenly, Xu Taiping thought of the red-crowned crane oil painting.
Xu Taiping hurriedly pressed the pen and walked to the front of the oil painting.
The red-crowned crane's eyes are so black that if you don't look closely, it's hard to see that the eyes have been gouged out, and they're recessed throughout, forming a pit about 0.5 centimeters in diameter.
Xu Taiping looked at the pen refill in his hand, and then looked at the red-crowned crane's eyes.
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Taiping inserted the refill of the pen into the red-crowned crane's eye.
Just the entire refill was completely inserted, and then, Xu Taiping turned the pen.
Drip!!
There was a sudden dripping sound in the room, and then, the oil painting of the red-crowned crane in front of Xu Taiping's eyes began to fade little by little.
In the blink of an eye, the red-crowned crane disappeared along with the background, replaced by something like a transparent lens.
Xu Taiping took two steps back, looking at the lens-like thing.
After a few seconds, there was a sudden flicker on the lens, and then a man with a masked face appeared in the lens.
"I thought you'd never turn on this switch for the rest of your life. The masked man's deep voice came from the lenses.
Xu Taiping raised his hand, shook it in front of the lens, and said, "Are you sure you're not a video?"
"What do you think?" asked the masked man.
"Who are you?" asked Xu Taiping.
"Xia Jiang calls me Mr. Li. The masked man said.
"Mr. Li?" Xu Taiping's pupils shrank and said, "It turns out to be you." ”
"Looks like you should know a lot of things. The masked man, that is, Mr. Li said.
"I don't know much about it, I only know that Xia Jiang took arms from you and sold them all over the world, and I don't know anything else. Xu Taiping shook his head and said, at this time, Xu Taiping was not willing to let himself act as if he knew everything, because if Mr. Li was interested in him, the less things he knew, the more Mr. Li would say, which might give Xu Taiping an unexpected gain.
"I can tell you a lot of things, but only if you promise me to be my agent. Mr. Li said.
"Agent, just like Xia Jiang, isn't it?" asked Xu Taiping.
"That's right!" Mr. Li nodded and said, "Becoming an agent, you can know a lot of things you want to know, of course, once you become my agent, it means that you have to continue to do what Xia Jiang did before." ”
"Do you sell arms?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Yes. Mr. Li said.
"What if I don't sell it?" asked Xu Taiping.
"If you become my agent and don't help me sell arms, then I will take everything you have now, maybe you think that Taiya Group is very powerful, but in front of the power behind me, all this is just a joke. Mr. Li said.
"How many agents do you have like Xia Jiang?" asked Xu Taiping.
After a moment of silence, Mr. Li asked, "Why do you ask?"
"It's very simple, you must be more than Xia Jiang as an agent, otherwise you would have come to me a long time ago, after all, Xia Jiang is dead, and no one will do business, right? The reason why you can calm down and never look for me must be because without me, you can sell what you want to sell. Xu Taiping replied.
"You're smarter than Xia Jiang. Mr. Li said.
"So I have lived until now, and Xia Jiang is dead. Xu Taiping said.
"You are also more difficult to deal with than Xia Jiang. Mr. Li said, "When I found Xia Jiang, it was as if I had seen God, and it was a great honor for him to be my agent, even if it was only a level 3 agent." ”
"Level 3 agents? I think you're a bit like a pyramid scheme. Xu Taiping said.
"As long as you agree to be my third-level agent, I can tell you a lot of things you want to know. Mr. Li said.
"What do I get, what do I have to give?" Xu Taiping asked.
"You can get money, a huge amount of money, and you don't have much to give, just keep your mouth shut, and send the arms I gave you around the world. Mr. Li said.
"That doesn't seem to be a difficult task!" Xu Taiping smiled and said, "I promise you." ”
"I'm going to be a surrogate, and I don't have any coercion or threats, so if you don't want to, just ask, and I'll just treat the meeting as if it didn't happen. Mr. Li said.
"I'm not the kind of person who can threaten anyone. Xu Taiping looked at Mr. Li with a smile and said.
"I like your confidence. Mr. Li said.
"I also appreciate your candor and candor. Xu Taiping said.
"I will pass you a document in a while, it is our contract, as long as you sign the contract and press your handprint, you will officially become my third-level agent, if you can do better than Xia Jiang, I may promote you to a second-level agent, and when that time comes, you will see a whole new world." Mr. Li said.
"Then what level are you?" asked Xu Taiping.
"I, I'm a first-class agent. Mr. Li said.
"In other words, there are more powerful people above you?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Ask that question when you're a second-tier agent. Mr. Li said, reaching out and pressing on the lens a few times.
It didn't take long for a contract to appear on the lenses.
Xu Taiping briefly looked at the contract, the content of the contract is very simple, that is, Xu Taiping must abide by the confidentiality agreement, must help them sell the arms they provided to Xu Taiping, Xu Taiping cannot privately intercept the arms, the profits generated by the sale of arms are divided according to 37, Xu Taiping takes 3, and Mr. Li takes 7.
Such a contract is actually illegal, because the trafficking of arms is itself illegal.
Xu Taiping doesn't know why these people want to get such a contract, it's like a few of you are going to rob a bank, you signed a contract, saying that you grabbed the bank and divided it according to the above proportion, this kind of contract has no legal binding force at all, even if you don't do that, people can't help you, you can't take the contract to the court to sue you, saying that you don't share the spoils evenly, right?
Xu Taiping quickly signed his name and pressed his handprint.
"Do you think we're doing this too much?" asked Mr. Lee.
"I really feel a little so!" Xu Taiping said.
"We do business, we have our own system, and the contract can ensure that we can kill you for a valid reason after you breach the contract, in short, it can give us some peace of mind. Mr. Li said.
"I see, it seems that you are still very well-behaved. Xu Taiping said.
"Rules are the basis of our success, well, now that the contract has been signed, then you can ask the questions you want to ask. Mr. Li said.
"Okay!" Xu Taiping nodded, and then asked...
